In before next week’s article that the Montreal office is permanently closed and all workers let go.

And my weird brain that isnt affected shooing it away.
Biologist here, the body itself isn’t what grows the “greener grass”. It’s just the start of a long biological process that will lead to ecological growth.
A tree isn’t going to feed directly off of the body. But the decay process will provide nutrients to the tree. We’re talking about insects and fungus at various levels of the process here. You can look up things like the Trophic Levels and Nutrient Cycles for more details on this whole process.
TLDR would be that the corpse floods the area with nutrients and maybe even kills off the plants with over abundance of nitrogen, but then fungus and bugs move in, then bigger bugs and small animals, and so on and then better plant systems. It’s kind of neat.
Was that dev me?
When it was first made available to the public I played about an hour or 2 and then stopped so I didn’t spill the game. My one big take away was that I really hated all the companions, especially sheart.
I’m glad how well written they all ended up.
This is the way. We didn’t abandon that awesome machine! It went above and beyond from day one and kicked ass! It’s a true hero.
It’s the Internet… Everything new is bad.
There fact that I have been told seriously, more than 0 times, to work more slowly in my life is insane to me.
Or polearmory, that reach is very helpful
Yayayyayayayyayayayay. I’m excited. The Fable games never felt truly finished and fully fleshed out, but I loved them all and played them so much.
Or Jack Black. I love him, but this dumb Hollywood trend of hiring Jack for anything comical is absurd.
I’ve been saying this for years. Use nice textured recycled plastic. The amount of cool textured and nice feeling materials out there is insane.
Gimme a plastic screen too. If someone is concerned about scratches they can add a glass protector. Those people already do anyway. There are even plastics that could be used that would resist scratches incredibly well.
Then my whole phone is flexible and nearly unbreakable.
Usually what happens is whoever needs to know has their own specific way of determining the thing.
As a wildlife biologist, the meme description is pretty good and would suffice for just about anything I need. The present or recent past circumstances are the most important to my work.
If I were interested in the geology, or say ground water, earth studiesor, or even the more distant past then this definition you share becomes more useful.
There are going to be even more criteria that apply for different groups, and even sometimes none of these definitions we’ve seen would matter because you only care if it sustains a specific species or something even less obvious.
I don’t specialize in that particular area so I couldn’t say honestly.
My primary focus when I did was just dealing with the Everglades and surroundings for the most part.
Worldwide I’m not sure I could even guess what should be more common.
Canada has those prairie potholes which are usually marshes and Canada is huge, so maybe sheer numbers it could be something like that, but by size you get things like the Everglades. I’m sure someone knows though, just not me.
Wildlife biologist here, Absolutely.
Oddly enough I usually see/write it fen/bog marsh. There are tons of other qualifiers too, like salt marsh, tidal marsh and such.
The same applies for all 4 examples if it’s needed. Salt swamps and fresh water swamps and such.
Wildlife biologist here, and I have to concur with just about all of this.
I think we generally look at a viruses and consider them alive but just barely. While prions are not because they (proteins) are what is considered one of the building blocks for life. Self replication being one of the major criteria we’d look for. We look at a very macro level of life but our education and work has a strong overlap down here a well.
This is such a well written post! Gets the point id like to make across in a much better way than I could
Explain yourself!
Hey aren’t you that knife nerd?!
There kinda isn’t really any definitive science that indicates a specific frame rate that the eye can perceive.
There are studies however that show ranges from 30 to 90hz, and studies that show that human perception can detect flicker at up to 500hz even.
The issue is that nothing that happens in the real world is synchronized with what you perceive. So filling in with more Hz means there are more chance for you to actually perceive the thing.
To complicate matters further, our brains do a lot of filling in for us, and our eyes and brains can still perceive things you aren’t consciously perceiving yourself. So again more frames is always nice.

My wife and I call ourselves scientits :)
Weird too, cus you could destroy the universe with 2 or even just 1 wish maybe?.
2 wishes: Repeat wish 2, repeat wish 1. Universe ends in magical overload.
1 wish: Don’t fulfill this wish. I feel like that’s less magical end of the universe and just death of the genie I guess?
